Congratulations on completing the 250 Box Challenge!
You did very well overall and I can see that your mark making quality improved a lot by the end. I can see that you consistently drew your boxes at a good size with a variety of foreshortening. Your added line weight steadily gets smoother and blends more seamlessly with your previous marks too. By the end of the challenge you also do a better job of getting your sets of parallel lines to converge more consistently towards their shared vanishing points!
There is still a bit of room for improvement when it comes to your added line weight. I can see that you are still hesitating a little as you try to make your added line weight match the previous mark. When you go to add weight to a line it is important that you treat the added weight the same way you would a brand new line. That means taking your time to plan and ghost through your mark so that when you go to execute it the mark blends seamlessly with your previous mark. This will allow you to build and create more subtle and clean looking weight to your lines.
Just remember, hesitation serves no purpose. Mistakes happen, but a smooth, confident mark is still useful even if it's a little off. This applies to line weight, hatching, and any other mark making you do while working through Drawabox.
Finally while your convergences do improve overall I think this diagram will help you further develop that skill as you continue through Drawabox. So, when you are looking at your sets of lines you want to be focusing only on the lines that share a vanishing point. This does not include lines that share a corner or a plane, only lines that converge towards the same vanishing point. Now when you think of those lines, including those that have not been drawn, you can think about the angles from which they leave the vanishing point. Usually the middle lines have a small angle between them, and this angle will become negligible by the time they reach the box. This can serve as a useful hint.
Congrats again and good luck with lesson 2!
